The Prison $ells team is joined by Shane Bauer, an incredibly important investigative journalist, to talk about what the insatiable need to squeeze profit from the people inside private prisons means for those inside the walls: both the staff members and the people convicted of crimes. Shane wrote about his experience inside a Louisiana private prison for Mother Jones, and he later turned it into an incredible book: American Prison: A Reporter's Undercover Journey into the Business of Punishment.
Shane's story is captivating and courageous.
